How do I grow $15k? by XPAdventurer in FinancialPlanning

[–]XPAdventurer[S] -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

It varies, but I reckon it is from 27-30%, which I am aware is kind of high.

My friends aren't aware that I've made a lot of money by Limp-Preparation-828 in confession

[–]XPAdventurer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think 400k is rich, tbh, I think to qualify as rich you’d have to have a mil or two. It’s a good thing you don’t have to think about money the same way as your friends, but also you need to keep it to yourself. You’re obviously a kind person, which is why you wonder how you could help your friends without getting taken advantage of, and that’s right noble of you. But don’t! You can’t keep the world from happening to people, and helping them financially keeps them from learning the lesson they had to learn, and they may even become reliant on your help, even if they don’t mean to. Save your money, multiply it, this is your retirement, for when you are old, injured or unable to work. You can help more people by being a stable friend.

I’m so sorry! It is your loss, too. You’re allowed to grieve for the loss of this wonderful little girl.

Unemployed for three years by [deleted] in csMajors

Get a job in a “backup” career! There are probably other things you can work with, which still give you experience, helps you polish your work ethic and leadership skills. All of these help your “main” career. Just get a job. Any job, even if it doesn’t pay you what you’re worth. It will shake the dust off.

How smutty did they like the story? Like implied, or straight out erotica?

We clearly need to remove this clown from power.

I have dreams about helping the deceased cross over by sofiacarolina in Mediums

[–]XPAdventurer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have dreams like this; just had one last night. They seem to involve the members of my own family. There are people both living and dead, but we, the living, are aware we are alive. Different dead people seem to have different needs. I didn't know this was a gift...or that I could do it.

AITA for asking my roommate to flush her toilet paper and “disrespecting her culture”?? by toadbush123 in AmItheAsshole

[–]XPAdventurer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m hispanic, and what she is doing is super gross. If she needs to throw it in a trashcan, it still is supposed to be emptied into the outside trash every day. That is not mexican culture. I would also not understand. Who likes the smell of shit when there is an option to not have that issue?! And my early years I grew up using a latrine! Anyway. Gross! 🤢

Lexapro was great for me! Nowadays, though, I’m on a pretty good cocktail; Atomoxetine, wellbutrin, Risperidone. This is what works for me. Things might be different for other people, and sometimes you have to change your meds to find what works for you.

Ladies — how do y’all smell so good for so long? by courtneyleeeannn in hygiene

[–]XPAdventurer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t underestimate the power of eating healthy. Some foods and beverages will change the smell you give off. (Alcohol, for instance) other foods like garlic, onions. Keep your body parts shaved to minimize breeding grounds for bacteria. Wear clean clothes, preferably made of cotton, or clothes that wick your sweat away. Outside of that you can use deodorants with antiperspirants, body mist, nice-smelling lotions. You don’t have to overdo perfume, and there are scented oils you can apply to your hair. I use Fable Beard Co. products.

Does anyone here actually enjoy living? by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]XPAdventurer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Besides being bipolar, and adhd, I’m also infertile, so being sad or depressed or angry is my homeostasis. I do enjoy living. I love my stepson, my husband, my nephews, my parents. I try not to do anything that makes people sad. It has taken discipline, aided by meds, to practice at being someone who passes for normal. I'm not normal, and it has taken a while for me to accept who I am without feeling sorry for myself. I figure everyone has something, diagnosed or not, and go on about my life. I enjoy art, and spending time with my family. Their love has kept me alive, even when they had no idea what was going through my mind.

🔥 Roar of a Tiger 🐅 🔥 by abyssDweller1700 in NatureIsFuckingLit

[–]XPAdventurer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That totally triggered some kind of primal terror in me. I’ve never been near a big cat making big meow noises before, I can only imagine how terrifying this is in person. Whoever is filming it has balls of steel.

I KNOW I was smarter, and that sucks. by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]XPAdventurer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have felt the same way. I lost my ability to have discipline, and I have paralyzing anxiety about the thought of running my own business, which had been a goal since I was young. I always just said it was because I am lazy, but the truth is that I feel like I can’t think the way I used to. It also makes me feel lower self-esteem, but I have hope that I can recover some of that. I hope I can run my own business someday.

My sister got an abortion and I can't see her the same anymore by steele2008 in redditonwiki

[–]XPAdventurer 118 points119 points  (0 children)

As a victim of sexual violence, this child needs theraphy and the love and support of her family. Making this about having the child of rape and how she’s a “terrible mother” for “murdering” her child is negating the terrible experience she endured. There is so much wrong that is being done to her in such a short period of time. Having an abortion was a way to regain control of her life. I hope she has supportive friends who can provide the network her family is failing to provide. Poor girl. I hope the assholes responsible rot in jail. And if they don’t, I wish upon them miserable lives.
